n “ideal world” would include no handguns, former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Julian Castro told The New York Times during an interview project.

The NYT asked 21 Democratic presidential hopefuls 18 questions for the project released Wednesday. Former Vice President Joe Biden was the only person to reject repeated requests to participate, The NYT reported. One question asked the Democrats: “In an ideal world, would anyone own handguns?”

“In an ideal world, people wouldn’t own handguns,” Castro replied on video. “And there are a number of countries around the world where people do not own handguns, where they’re not permitted. And those countries have more safety, greater safety, less violent deaths and so forth.”

OFFS! Easier to take control of the masses my dear. So, I guess in that case the "crime happens" comment would be moot? Can the libocrats get any stoopider?

[coydog]

In an ideal world, people wouldn’t rob, rape and murder.

In an ideal world dogs wouldn’t kill cats.

I agree. Once we get that darn Utopia established, things are gonna be different ...

But until then, the guns aren’t going away.

[SpaceBar]

... except Julian Castro and his security detail.

In an ideal world, whether people chose to own or not to own a handgun wouldn’t matter to anyone.

In an ideal world dipsticks like Julian Castro wouldn’t inhabit public discourse.

But it isn’t an ideal world.

Yes. In an ideal world.

Wouldn’t need locks, either. Et cetera.

It’s not an ideal world.

In an ideal world, everyone would have the ability to defend themselves. When you declaw a cat, you take away their natural ability to do that. Humans don't have claws or other natural defenses other than our brains and skills to make weapons. Those are our natural defense.

We might live in different ideal worlds... ;)

[ml/nj]

In an ideal world, the people would own guns except for government employees who would not be allowed to possess weapons of any kind.

It would make for a very civil government.

In an ideal world, Castro wouldn’t look like a Batman villain.

(Cheap shot, I know, but he does look weird).

[Rebelbase]

In an ideal world I’d be married to Kathy Ireland.

In an ideal world, there wouldn't even be cats in the first place. (And yes, I do have a cat, who has me tied around her little paw)

[fruser1]

Right except there’s always those commie type folks who want to steal your stuff. Viking raiders and the like.

[Vince Ferrer]

In an ideal world, the government could be trusted.

[I want the USA back]

In an ideal world, liberalism wouldn’t exist.

[MortMan]

In an ideal world, idiots would not be politicians.

Newsflash! We don’t live in an ideal world.
